It’s raining, it’s pouring…
Time to drag out the old umbrella. Today I think it will be the one with the Mickey Mouse faces all over it, it’s bound to cheer up the day.
What color/style umbrella do you have?
I really try to be good but it just isn’t in my nature!
Black.
It goes with my black overcoat, black shoes, and DARK-GRAY trousers (everyone needs a dash of color to perk things up, even in New York!).
Uke
Black…boyo has one that is black with yellow dump trucks on it… but today we need a brush and scraper for the snow… wanna borrow my brelly pcw?

Black.
It goes with my black overcoat, black shoes, black stockings, black dress, and grey handbag (everyone needs a dash of color to perk things up).
Hey!
Color- black, style - short, push-button. It is currently dry-rotting in the back of my coat closet. I haven’t used it in several years.

Umbrella? Last time I opened mine moths flew out of it. A species of moth thought to have been extict mind you. We had a little rain a few weeks ago but it had been over 90 days since we had gotten a drop.
FWIW mine is black, bought at a drugstore in San Francisco where I really needed it.
Come, let us go, I’ve a cask of amontillado.
Black.
It goes with my black overcoat, black… oh, forget it.
No wonder rainy days are so bleak!! Where is your sense of adventure people…at least your sense of style!

I have two.
My favorite is bright yellow with Spiderman and his logo all over it.
The other is red plaid (big Mighty Mighty Bosstones fan for a while.)

Umbrella? Why use an umbrella?
In Wa, you get used to the rain after a while and don’t need one.
Of course it rarely rains hard, it is more like a constant pissing rain than a downpour.

I want a Spider-Man umbrella. That would be way cool!
a pretty blue one, given to me by someone from minneapolis. llllol. she didn’t realize it doesn’t rain in phoenix. especiall funny that we all have one, huh, guys?
I have three, a small “totes” style black one, ditto in plaid, and a huge stick umbrella from Holiday Park. Somehow these are always in the car when I need them (and my husband has always got the car, the selfish bastard). In a real pinch, I’ve used the kids umbrellas, but I look really funny trying to keep dry with a minature Elmo umbrella.
On a side note, those clear plastic rain hoods that middle age women use have got to go! Although I’ll admit to a curious liking for those clear plastic raincoats you can buy at Walgreens.
I live in Southern California.
Umbrella? What’s that?
Umbrella?
Hah. If you all just wore trench coats and top hats like I do you wouldn’t need umbrellas.
Here’s a pic of mine. I think it’s funky.

Black. It is about 6 inches long when folded up. This is supposed to be good. You know, that cool compact design and all. The problem is, it works like crap and rarely opens right, pluss the coverage is quite meager. Oh well, guess I’ll just get wet!

Mine is maroon and white. High school colours. My mom thought it would be cute, but I don’t care either way since it hardly ever rains when I have somewhere to go.
I think it’s a region of Italy, Arnold.
I’m looking forward to that So Cal scuzzy deal. Hope we don’t have to cancel on account of the weather. (snort…ha ha…snort)
Mine is dark grey, with old fashioned “luggage tags” silkscreening.
Only use it in May and June, when the wet season hits.
